Before I write this I just wanna say that this was silly with the current conditions and nobody else was about!!

Went out of a junction today 1st gear full revs (about 30mph) clutch in 2nd gear clutch out full throttle and next thing I am looking out of the drivers window going sideways 8] opposite lock feather the throttle and it snapped back in line !!

Lesson learnt ! becareful in the snow everyone

And I bet you knew that was going to happen before you did it, doesn't stop the childish curiosity though does it. laugh I imagine the V6 is one of the worst/most fun cars to drive in snow, depending which way you look at it. As long as you keep it out the hedge.

Always tempting to give it the beans but to be honest doing it on snow is a no brainer.
Must be nice getting the back end though!
